    Such a shame... and they lasted so long!
    At least we have an alternative - Markos's uploads feature. Hurray!

      Yeah, I was thinking on the upload feature. Would it be possible if we top one head, "current information" (again ), in where one member posts a few images like the screenshot, F11, power, F1 with some cryptic names. After that, uploading each turn the newest images with the same name should keep the post in the thread up to date, and if certain images don't change, the last one is still valid and displayed.

      The only problem is that it's one step more to do for the players, or somebody should come forward and volunteer to upload these pictures each turn to his account. We can't really change the uploaders, or we have to edit the post each time.

          I wouldn't mind doing it.

            Shiber, go right ahead! I saw you started in the turn threads, but doing so will mean you'll have to update the names all the time, or repost the links... maybe a topped thread is better for this.

              I was actually expecting that someone starts a designated thread and copies the URLs of the images from the thread where I originally posted them.
              In any case, I may open such a thread myself later today if I find the time. If not, I'll do it tomorrow.

                oh, while I'm at it, could you include me in these mailings as well... I'm beginning to have a hard time visualizing what you are talking about...

                  Soren, you can find the up-to-date screenshots in the GS common mailbox (see page 1 of this thread). Soon we shall switch to uploading and posting the shots in the forum.

                    I think he's at least as interested in the city and defense plans that have been circulating... but those should be in our e-mail box as well.

                      what were people posting their e-mails for?

                        We have a mailing list which we use, the gatheringstorm address is just as backup and for those not listed. At least at my side you're included, but Sir Ralph and Nathan should include you in their lists if you want to receive all turn screenies.

                            Soren, we've got a situation here.

                            We are pretty creative people, and (speaking for the team, unauthorized) can see our way toward a win-win-win situation.

                            Any ideas?

                            Everyone contribute, please.

                              hey, it's up to you guys... my current interest simply stems from paying a little more attention to how your democratic process works as we are starting up one of your own. So it is mostly just a request of convenience. Believe me, we hold out little hope of outminmaxing you guys...

                              at any rate, if you are uncomfortable with me being here, it would seem like you would be more concerned about me reading this forum (which has more strategic-level content) than viewing screenshots (which have mostly game-specific content).

                                Gathering Storm is not very democratic...we mostly just debate everything to hell and post polls to spice things up. I'm still not quite sure how decisions are made.
